Arsenal in the early 2000s was one of the best teams in the world. Having players of the calibre of Henry, Bergkamp and Pires, the Gunners went on a stunning run where they won the last 13 matches to seal the Premier League title in 2001/02 season.

They later started off the 2002/03 season with a win which extended their winning streak to 14 matches. Their streak was brought to an end when they drew 2-2 against West Ham in the second league game of the season.

Arsene Wenger’s men played some amazing and beautiful football on their way to the Premier League title in 2001/02. Thierry Henry was in superb form as they won match after match to leave their closest rivals, Liverpool a comfortable seven points behind on the Premier League table.
